Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..1000
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,0,0,0,1,-1).
FORMULA
a(n) = floor((8n-7)/5). [Gary Detlefs, Mar 07 2010]
G.f.: x^2*(1+2*x+2*x^2+x^3+2*x^4) / ( (x^4+x^3+x^2+x+1)*(x-1)^2 ). - R. J. Mathar, Dec 07 2011
From Wesley Ivan Hurt, Jul 31 2016: (Start)
a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-5) - a(n-6) for n > 6, a(n) = a(n-5) + 8 for n > 5.
a(n) = (40*n - 45 + 3*(n mod 5) - 2*((n+1) mod 5) - 2*((n+2) mod 5) + 3*((n+3) mod 5) - 2*((n+4) mod 5))/25.
a(5k) = 8k-2, a(5k-1) = 8k-3, a(5k-2) = 8k-5, a(5k-3) = 8k-7, a(5k-4) = 8k-8. (End)
